Ibrahim Magu, the suspended acting chairman, Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has opened up on the allegations that he
gave N4 billion to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.
Magu described the claim as false and a calculated attempt
to tarnish Osinbajo’s hard-earned reputation
The suspended EFCC boss, who was freed from detention on
Wednesday, equally denied giving the sum of N28 million to Femi Falana SAN, a
human rights lawyer.
Magu spoke in a petition signed by his lawyer, Wahab Kunle
Shittu and addressed to the Chairman of the Presidential Investigations Panel,
Justice Isa Ayo Salami.
“Our client strongly denies this falsehood against the
respected Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Our client has
never given the sum of N4 billion or any sum at all to Prof. Yemi Osinbajo SAN,
GCON, Vice President of Federal Republic of Nigeria as wrongly reported.”
“This allegation is complete falsehood designed to tarnish
the hard-earned reputation of the Vice President.
“This allegation is a complete fabrication. Our client never
gave N28 million or any amount to Mr. Femi Falana SAN as maliciously reported.
Our client also denies any link with a Kaduna-based Bureau De Change Operator
as alleged.”
